Several questions came in about the state's opioid crisis, something the Republican mayor of the state's largest city is familiar with. Gatsas said that money from the state to help deal with the crisis is overdue.

"The Legislature went in for a special session in November to deal with the epidemic on fentanyl," Gatsas said. "The money hasn't arrived on the street yet to help folks who are dying. I would think the $5 million that they appropriated should already be in the streets and helping folks to save their lives."

One Facebook user said he wanted to know about more widespread surveillance in trouble areas.

"In the city of Manchester, we've installed neighborhood policing," Gatsas said. "It's a program that shows you what day and time you're liable to see a neighborhood with problems. Predictive policing seems to be working. It gives the chief more opportunity to put more officers in an area where there are hot spots, and it's been working. I'm not too sure that I would support cameras, but we should have a dialogue about it."

Others wondered what Gatsas would do to encourage young people to live and work in New Hampshire after graduation.

"We've got the only four-year technology high school that allows students to go in and become a plumber, electrician, culinary arts, beautician," Gatsas said. "That allows them to be ready for the work force. Businesses have said that we need students that are ready to go to work immediately, and that's what this school does."
